Press release:
Employing a toolkit of cutting-edge DSP, Swarm Intelligence reimagines classic rave frameworks for dancefloors of the future. »Ultraware« traces a path through electro, big beat, jungle and acid – optimising and reconstructing until only fragmented traces remain.
Following up from his widely acclaimed »Against the Dying Light« album, this EP marks a new shift in the ever-evolving Swarm Intelligence sound. A relentless explorer of audio technology, here he utilizes spectral processing alongside convolution and granular synthesis to craft a gritty sonic repository for the four tracks.
Even in moments when the sequences disintegrate into chaos before reassembling into a coherent form, there is never a feeling that Swarm Intelligence is not in full control – this is an artist who thrives on complexity.
Referencing the cyborg-fetishising electro of the early 90s, »Rise of the Machines« opens the EP. Stark and booming, its slick bassline dominates the mix with club-shaking heft. Having escalated to peak intensity, the track abruptly cuts to a simulated scratch routine before slamming back in with gigawatts of pure sonic power.
Up next is »Holographic«, a trippy hybrid of abstract techno and big beat. Shifting textures whirr around a thundering kick drum pattern and off-kilter snare hits, as the track pummels its way towards a ghostly breakdown.
Over on the B-side is »Cybernetic«. An evolved jungle cut, its rolling bassline and snare fills propel the track through clouds of grainy melodies. Swarm Intelligence’s modular synth features heavily as the track dissolves into a crunchy lo-fi drum solo before serving up a series of cine- matic impacts in its final moments.
»Our Wounds Are Opposite« is the last track. Hyper-produced, disjointed beats cut through forlorn pads and glitchy synths to create this 3D-printed ballad. Juxtaposing the reverberating melodies, its laser zaps and over-driven snare mark the track’s passage with absolute precision.
